R help - Jan 2011 - Merging zoo objects

Hi 

I have n zoo objects M1, M2, M3, ... , Mn that I want to merge where n is a
number calculated at run-time.

I am struggling to find the correct syntax to do this

Assuming n is calculated as 10 (for example), I have tried

n = 10
# First Effort
alldata= merge(paste("M",rep(1:n), sep=""),all=TRUE)

# Second Effort
alldata
=merge(noquote(toString(paste("M",rep(1:nrow(counts1)),sep=""))),all=TRUE)

Any insights would be gratefully received.

Kind regards

Pete

Try this where the sapply creates a list of the objects.

library(zoo)
M1 <- zoo(11:13); M2 <- zoo(21:24); M3 <- zoo(31:35)

do.call("merge", sapply(ls(pattern = "^M"), get, simplify =
FALSE))
